It looks like those in charge of security in the US are only informed of the threat of little old ladies and gentlemen trying to get on airplanes.
Allah help us all!! Sorry that should read GOD HELP US ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess that nobody thought to tell Mubarak.
There is a founded opinion among the old boy net that CIA guys are unable to chew gum and walk.
I WANT HEARINGS!!! LOTS OF HEARINGS….RIGHT NOW….INTELLIGENCE FAILURE…Oh wait that’s only for the Bush administration. Never mind….
Once you get the Dems outside their wealth redistribution field of expertise, they’re like deer in the headlights.

Huh? What did Obama invade Egypt based on this bad intell?
He’s just channeling his inner Clapper.
They are made for each other. like two peas in a pod, or more accurately, two turds in a toilet bowl.
A bet they’ve been trying to keep this from the FBI.
Don’t feed the trolls if they show up here.
Pardon me all to hell, but less than 1 percent of the population having the time and inclination to get out and move a scheduled election up by six months by throwing rocks and epithets isn’t democracy. The mainstream media, God bless their blackened souls, supports an anybody-but-Mubarak position. That’s really not good enough either. I wish somebody would tell me what is really going on.
It’s a Clapper Caper! (See Jack Webb & Johnny Carson).
oh dear. and the director of the CIA is supposed to be above politics.
oh wait, that all changed with another george, george tenet:

during dubya’s 2nd term.
oh the humanity !!!!
hmmmm.
that’s the 2nd time tonite I’ve had to ram a comment past the filters. can you see how I did it?
whatever can it mean?
One of the major promlems is that Obama has surrounded himself with people that are as inept as he is. It shows.
(Alain, WS is back on line)
The comment on Instapunddit, “a third world tin pot dictator just told the President of the United States to stick it without fear of any reprisal at all”, says it all.
Though debka, http://debka.com/article/20650/, says it is really the Saudi king telling Obama to go jump in a lake.
What a master of foreign policy Bambi is!
Great article, if true (lol, hehe), John Lewis. Thank-you.
Even Obama’s nod doesn’t always determine the winner.
Well ok, based on past performance, Obama’s nod to the opposition made it a safe bet that Mubarak would come out on top.
I wonder if the CIA director knew Sarkozy was going to say this? http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110210/wl_afp/francepoliticsimmigrationsociety_20110210231042
“PARIS (AFP) – French President Nicolas Sarkozy declared Thursday that multiculturalism had failed, joining a growing number of world leaders or ex-leaders who have condemned it.
“My answer is clearly yes, it is a failure,” he said in a television interview when asked about the policy which advocates that host societies welcome and foster distinct cultural and religious immigrant groups. …”
The obama administration makes me nervous….
From the Washington Post
“The explanation that Panetta was citing news accounts protected him from being on the hook if the prediction turned out not to be true. But it also carried a more subtle public relations risk, suggesting that the CIA chief was not necessarily any better informed than others at Thursday’s hearing, scanning their cellphones for breaking news.”
Here is the kicker……
“Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr. defended the intelligence community on Thursday – saying that spy services have produced thousands of reports in recent years warning of instability in Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East – while acknowledging that it was unclear what events might trigger a government overthrow. “I would give it at least a B-plus, not an A-minus,” he said.”
B+, where have we heard that before?
Obama “Clap on Clap off” then “I’ll have the Kobe”
Like in the other thread, that’s the sound of Obama BOWING again.
Hope he has some liniment.
In 2012, the most overheard phrase in Egypt:
“why the hell did we get rid of Hosny?”
Wow … now we have CIA directors flipping coins.
Didn’t Mubarak hear Obama’s speech about offering an open hand if they unclinch their fists? Maybe Mubarak doesn’t know that Bush is gone? What to do now? Where are the speech writers and tele prompter? This could get serious!
Is Queen’s ‘We Will Rock You’ relevant at this time?
looks like Leon was right after all. if off by a day.
